Chapter 113: Blown Up
"Second master, you haven't been back for so long, the old lady is worried about you, so she asked me to come out to pick you up and the second wife, and go directly to the villa when you get someone."
"You go back and tell them, I'll stay here, don't leave, it's safe here, so they don't have to worry."
"Second master, is it okay here?" The man looked at the sandbag blocking the door, it looked quite reliable, and it was useless to know if it was flooded.
"What's the matter, you dare to say that your second master can't do anything."
"The second master is naturally okay." The man shouted and laughed.
The others also laughed, all the people who laughed presumptuously were adult men, the women also pursed their lips and smiled, and glanced at Zhu Yuanyuan intentionally or unintentionally, Zhu Yuanyuan of course knew what they were laughing at, and they pouted and no one cared.
Han Shaoyuan waved his hand, "Okay, you go back quickly, the embankment will be blown up at dawn, and you won't be able to leave if you want to." ”
The man was a little worried, but there was already a glimmer of light in the sky, and it was really too late to leave, "Then I'll go." ”
The head of the wall went down, and then the sound of horses' hooves was heard, and he walked farther and farther.
"Okay, leave one person here to keep watch, and everyone else will go back to rest."
Zhu Yuanyuan went back to wash her hair and take a bath, finished breakfast, and looked at the sky, "Hey, no, wasn't it dawn just now, why did it take so long, and it was darker." ”
"At this hour, the sky is already bright, and now it is covered by dark clouds, and I am afraid that there will be heavy rain." Cuckoo said.
"Yesterday it was gloomy, stuffy and hot, and it didn't rain, but now it's windy, and it's a lot cooler." Begonia said.
"Alas! The house leak happened to rain overnight! Zhu Yuanyuan yawned, "I want to sleep, if something calls me, you can go to sleep too, you've been busy for a day and a night." ”
"Okay."
Zhu Yuanyuan slept, cuckoos and begonias also slept, and most people slept.
It just so happened that Lilac, Jasmine, Qian Xiaobao, and Zhao Ping'an were half-year-olds, and they couldn't do the heavy work last night, so they went back to bed early, and now they got up, and the work of the guards was handed over to them.
The door was blocked, and all the adults of the family went to rest, and they were on the high platform, leaning against the wall and looking out, and from time to time there were horse-drawn carts and ox carts passing by, and there were few pedestrians, and they were all in a hurry.
Anyone who passes by the Zhu family will take a look, the sandbags blocking the door are too conspicuous, and those people are anxious, and there is envy in their gloomy looks.
The wind grew stronger, the sky grew darker, and a thunderbolt slashed, breaking the darkness, followed by a deafening thunder and a torrential downpour.
A few children went into the house to hide from the rain, and the sound of the thunderstorm made everyone sleep unsteadily, but they were so tired that the thunderstorm could not make them give up sleep.
But this day is a special day, and no one is destined to sleep soundly.
"Boom", there was a loud bang, Zhu Yuanyuan was awakened in her sleep, she opened her eyes, sat up suddenly, "Exploded?" ”
Barefoot on the warm wooden floor, he strode to the window, and as soon as he pushed the window open, the wind swept through the torrential rain and slammed his head and face.
The air was pouring rain, misty, and the cool rain hit Zhu Yuanyuan's face, and her mind was clear, but she was still panicked in her heart.
I closed the window, wiped my face casually with a towel, and hurriedly changed my clothes.
Cuckoo and Begonia also got up, Cuckoo came in to help Zhu Yuanyuan comb her hair, and Begonia went to the front yard to inquire about the situation first.
"Miss, don't worry, it's okay."
The cuckoo said comforting words in his mouth, but his hands were shaking, so Zhu Yuanyuan took the comb and tied a ponytail herself.
"Let's go ahead and have a look." Zhu Yuanyuan threw down the comb and left, the cuckoo followed closely, and the two hurriedly went downstairs.
"Boom", another earth-shattering bang, the earth shook, the houses shook, Zhu Yuanyuan was caught off guard, was bumped up the stairs, and almost didn't roll down, "What's the matter?" ”
Listen to the sound of the explosion, very close, is next to the embankment......
Holding an umbrella, running all the way in the torrential rain, the howling wind, the pouring rain, constantly impacted Zhu Yuanyuan, she has not experienced natural disasters, whether the measures she does can withstand the flood, Zhu Yuanyuan is really bottomless in her heart.
When he arrived at the front yard, Han Shaoyuan was wearing a robe, and he was already standing on a temporary high platform, and there were many people standing under the porch in the front yard.
Zhu Yuanyuan cautiously climbed the wooden ladder, the umbrella was useless, and her whole body was drenched in rain.
"How's it going?"
"See for yourself." Han Shaoyuan mouthed Nunu outside.
A large gap broke in the embankment next to the official road, and the murky water poured out of the gap, and the sound of rushing water was more prominent than the sound of the storm.
The rice fields on the opposite side have been invaded by the river, watching the river spread all the way, past the Zhu family, and surging towards the gate of Pingyuan County, spreading very quickly, but the water level is not high, Zhu Yuanyuan's heart began to calm down.
The reality is not as she imagined, the tragedy of snatching the sky and the earth, Zhu Yuanyuan secretly said, it is all the fault of those disaster movies, it is so exaggerated, it makes people feel sad, nervous, and heart-wrenching, which makes her take it for granted that the flood is so miserable.
Han Shaoyuan looked at Zhu Yuanyuan and couldn't help grinning, obviously holding an umbrella, but it was wet from head to foot, I really want to say that your umbrella looks good?
The soaked clothes are attached to her, and the female figure characteristics are more prominent, and the light fabric is a little transparent, and the white middle coat inside can be seen.
I didn't pay attention to Han Shaoyuan's gaze that floated over from time to time, but I felt that my body was wet and uncomfortable, Zhu Yuanyuan looked at it for a while, and then said, "You watch here, I'll go back and change my clothes." ”
"Okay, let's go."
Suddenly, Han Shaoyuan said loudly to the cuckoo underground: "Cuckoo, cook a bowl of ginger soup for your young lady to drive away the cold." ”
"Hey! Got it. The cuckoo replied crisply and loudly, and muttered in a low voice, "You still need to say it." ”
Han Shaoyuan accommodated Zhu Yuanyuan everywhere, was considerate and thoughtful, and now he still stayed to share the weal and woe together, and Zhu Yuanyuan couldn't keep a straight face with him anymore, everyone saw this, they were very talented and beautiful, and everyone hoped that they could get back together, except for cuckoo and begonia.
Zhu Yuanyuan didn't know that they had so many ideas, she was soaking wet, and she was thinking in her heart, how to get a batch of raincoats out.
It's easier to get a finished raincoat, but it's easier to explain by buying fabric and making it yourself, because she sells cloth!
Zhu Yuanyuan's work of changing clothes has already selected two pieces of cloth for umbrellas and one thickened Oxford cloth.
There is a reminder from Han Shaoyuan to cook ginger soup, this time, Zhu Yuanyuan asked for common medicines, to treat colds and fevers, and diarrhea, in this case, it is quite troublesome to get sick, and you can't find a doctor or medicine if you have money.
After a long time, the other party collected a small box of medicines, and people did not wholesale medicines, so he still ran to many pharmacies to buy so many.
Zhu Yuanyuan changed into her usual practice clothes, and it was too inconvenient for her skirt to run.
When Haitang came back, it was the same as a soup chicken, Zhu Yuanyuan waved her hand, "Let's go and change my clothes first, don't get sick." ”
Haitang changed her clothes and came back, looking excited, "Miss, I went to the side door to see it, but the flood can't come in." ”
"What do you think?" Zhu Yuanyuan asked, it stands to reason that the flood spreads, and it will take a lot of time to flood the rice fields opposite, as well as the low-lying areas in the distance, and it is impossible for the water to rise after a while.
"I moved a ladder over the wall and went out to see."
Zhu Yuanyuan was happy, she was so excited to climb over the wall, it seems that Begonia has nothing to do with gentleness and virtuousness.
